Throwing Out Hints.

When Georgia farmer found out
that his son John was sparkling a cer-
tain farmers daughter for year or
more without settling any question,
he called him out behind the stack
and said to him:
"John, do you love Susan Tinker ?''
II guess ! do, dad"
"And does she love your"
"That's what l dunno, and I'm
'fraid to ask her."
"Well, you'd better throw out a few
hints tonight and find out. It's no
use wearing out boot leather unless
you are going to marry her."
That night at ten o'clock John
came home wreck. His face was
all scratched up, his ear was bleeding
his hat gone, and his back was cover
ed with mud.
"John John! What on airth is
the matter ?" exclaimed the old man,
laying down his paper
"Bin over to Tinker's," was the re-
ply.
"And-and-"
"And l threw out few hints to
Susan"
"What kind O. hints ?"
"Why, l told her I'D been hoofng
it two miles four nights out of week
for the last year to set up with her
while she chawed gum and sung
through her nose, and l reckoned it
was time for her to brush her teeth
and darn her stockings, cure the bile
on her chin and tell the old folks that
we're engaged"
"And her father bounced you p
"No, dad, no; that's where I'm
consoled. 1t took the whole gasted
family, including Susan, two hired
men and three dogs, and then wasn't
more'n half licked. guess we NOV
ed on 'cm too soon, dad-I guess it
wasn't quito time to throw out hints"

a War Museum Pro,,t,.s.ti. .

In West Virginia there are thousands Of
relics OF tho var, which, il collected, pre-
served and labelled with their history
would form a museum Of mementos that
would be Ct great value to iuturo genera
tons. Trey might be gathered together
and placed in the care OF some trusty in.
diyidusl or institution until the time ar.
rivea when 3 suitable building can be
erected, 1t o convenient point in the State
in which to place them on exhibition.
Either the Society Of the Army OF West
Virginia or tho q. A. r. OF this State
should take the matter in hand. BY ap.
pealing to the people Of the State and ia
old soldiers generally, the Society might,
in the course Of 8 few months, have a
museum which would be very attractive
in its way and would certainly be Of price.
less value to the people long after the las.
Of the participants in tho late unpleasant.
ness shall have passed away. There il
scarcely a family in the State but can con.
tribute something to the collection-such
as uniforms, arms, battle flags, photo.
grsphg, publications, letters, mementoes
picked up on battle-felds, captured ar,i
Giles that may not have found their way
to the National Museum at Washington
&C., &c. In iuture years, when the last Of
the gallant boys in blue shall have re-
ported 10 the Great Commander, from
this museum might grow permanent c1
hibition covering every detail OF the
States history and resources. The sug.
geation covers, Of courae, Confederate us
well 90 Union records. vi. e
The lNTELLloENcER does not propose te
insist upon any particular point in the
State for the establishment Of euch an in,
stitution as is here suggested. That mus
be left to those who shall have the matte,
in charge in case the idea meets with ap
proyal. Wheeling people will be glad l.
a museum Of this kind be established here
1t would add to the attractions Of the city
and when tho time comes Tor the erection
OF permanent exhibition building
Wheeling capital and enterprise would BIZ
found atthe front doing their share.
There will be no better time than now te
start the ball to rolling. On this Rsunior
& OCCASION enough contributions TO the
\ project in tho way Of relics would doubt
lesa BIO pledged by the visiting old sol
diers TO guarantee success. I Can aome
enterprising patriots DO found to work out
tho scheme?
